Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Risk Management for the EVRi North area, covering H&S and Facilities management. I manage the UK-wide H&S management system which includes the collection / analysis of data, reporting and development of control measures. Additionally I run the UK-wide ISO certification programme for 9001, 14001 and 45001
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I'm really enjoying the programme, because it is answering questions that I have been asking myself for a long time. Each lesson provides me with more ideas on how to improve our management system and automation tools!
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Yes. Even though I am on my 2nd month, I am already gaining familiarity with Python and have gained a great overview of the technologies involved in Data Analytics
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Feels well-structured and organized, the curriculum jumps straight into practical programming which ensures that I feel I'm making good progress. The Kate learning environment provides a lot of additional learning support and I also have a course mentor who helps me to keep on track.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
Couldn't ask for more support. My manager has allowed me to allocate a day per week exclusively to the course, and is attending the progress review calls.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
I have a course mentor who contacts me regularly and is supporting me through the whole process (including attaining the required certifications for maths & english).
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
it's early in the course, but I can already see many areas where I can apply what I'm learning in my day-to-day role. The course material will allow me to develop tools & processes that will lift the performance / effectiveness of our whole team.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
I understand there are some activities at our Head Office location, but not much going on elsewhere (that I know about)
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Evri to a friend?
Yes
Why?
EVRi is a very dynamic and demanding employer, innovation and experimentation is encouraged. If I have an idea I'm given the freedom to try it out and feed back the results to my team so we can make a group decision on adoption. Never a dull moment!
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Evri?
Focus on your practical achievements, not your qualifications. Can you demonstrate innovation, strong team participation, good communication, personal action leading to improvements in effectiveness, efficiency or profit?
